The snowy scene was stamped onto the kraft (as close as I have to the baked brown sugar) and I added snow on the trees w\/ a white gel pen. The snow on the ground was done w\/ a white prismacolor pencil. The falling snow was done by seriously thinning white acrylic paint (approx. 6 to 1 water\/paint) in a fine mister and spritzing. I wanted something else red, so I drew a tiny cardinal in the tree. The finished card is 5.50 x 4.25.
